Hi guys,
Im looking for some tips for cleaning greys without having to wash. My 5yo CP absolutly hates being washed and can get quite dangerous kicking and biting. I always use warm water and a sponge instead of hosing him but its still no good. Really doesnt help thats he is practically white...
Yea the companies I was considering asking are not Equine related so it would have to be entries/training money etc in exchange for advertising on numnahs, jackets, coolers etc. But if it was a case of a horsey company id never say no to freebies haha!
Thats exactly it! When do you look for sponsorship? For me personally I have one or two companies in mind that I was considering approaching as they are local and family acquaintences. I have lots of competition experience but not very recently and not amazing (but not crap) results either, but...
Its so hard to know where to start and who to approach, but I suppose the worst they can do is say no and you cant get it unless you ask!! Im obviously not olympic material quite yet but maybe one day i'l get there!! ;) But you have to start somewhere right? Thanks guys! ------And cold hard cash...
Great idea thank you. I loved that kind of thing when I was little too. I would quite happily spend all my time slaving away for nothing. School holidays definatly a starting point thanks!
Thanks so much for all your ideas! I will definatly take them all onboard :) I did get in touch with groupon here in Ireland but they just messed me around a bit so Im not going to bother with them, took 3 months to return my phone call and another 2 to follow it up!! I do intend to offer livery...

Id forgotten about this post but just to update you all...the pony is doing great. Hasnt had a problem with the stifle in over a year. Seems to have grown out of it which is what some of the research indicated. Because he's so tiny I cant ride him so had been lunging him to keep exercised but...
Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone could fill me in a bit on how companies sponsor professional riders. Do most sponsors just offer discounts on their products or free stuff in exchange for advertising on numnahs/coolers etc? Or do they actually sponsor with money for entries etc...
Thanks!
I have a facebook page for the yard, have to say it really is a brilliant way of advertising, ive gained a few clients from it. Now trying to think of some more new ways that aren't cliche...hoping to stand out from the crowd!! :D
Hi everyone,
Im looking for your ideas on advertising my new riding stables. We have been open in Ireland for a couple of months and have a small steady client base but I am looking to advertise and hopefully gain a few more clients. Has anyone got any good or inivative advertising ideas...
Just wondering if anybody has any treatment ideas for locking stifles that they have used on horses with the condition.
I have a pony who is just under 11 hands and is approx 4 years old. I have had him for 3months and he is used very lightly in my riding school. Shortly after I got him I...
